 * DESCRIPTION: Parse a control method AML to scan for control methods that
 *              need serialization due to the creation of named objects.
 *
 * NOTE: It is a bit of overkill to mark all such methods serialized, since
 * there is only a problem if the method actually blocks during execution.
 * A blocking operation is, for example, a Sleep() operation, or any access
 * to an operation region. However, it is probably not possible to easily
 * detect whether a method will block or not, so we simply mark all suspicious
 * methods as serialized.
 *
 * NOTE2: This code is essentially a generic routine for parsing a single
 * control method.
